Wing Out

Start with a box of individual lashes (found at drugstores) that contains at least two lengths. "The strip variety is easier to work with," Brown says, "but using single lashes at the outer corners looks much more natural." Be sure to buy black, not white, glue—it's more forgiving if you make a mistake.

1. Hold a lash up to your eye with tweezers to check the length. (Medium is usually best for the whole eye, though you can use longer ones on the outer edges.) Dip lash in glue, then wait a few seconds for the paste to dry partially.
